Goood morning every body..well today also I would like to proceed with our discussion on newbaby's psychology...!!
Oooohh!Yes, newborns spend most of their time sleeping and and eating. Taking care of anew baby can feel like a series of mechanical task.
But babies are much more than eating, sleeping, pooping machines. At birth, they are primed and ready for social input.
Even if you are too tired too notice, your loving care has profound effects on your baby’s developing mind.
Decades ago, this seemed doubtful. People assumed that newborn babies were empty-headed, passive lumps. Babies didn’t really have minds—not yet—and they certainly didn’t respond to social stimuli.
Today we know differently. It appears that babies are born with remarkable social capacities that help them
• identify voices and faces
• communicate, and
• develop an understanding of other minds
So neonates aren’t blank slates, and the people who care for newborns are more than diaper-changers. Think of a newborn as a computer than comes preloaded with software designed to detect patterns in the social environment. This software helps guide newborn development.
Here are some examples of the social feats that vabies can perform within the first few days of life.
